Chapter 114
On the second day of the completion of the Zhongtiantai, in the water, the anomaly reappeared.
In May of this year, there were swimming fish back, and the river swelled, causing live fish to be washed up on the shore, and the people rushed to hunt for food.
This time, it was August, and the water level of Bashui had not risen, but the fish in the river jumped to the shore as if they were hiding from something.
The people were happily heading to the riverbank on the outskirts of the city to collect fish and make sacrifices, when a comet crossed the sky.
The comet sees the sky, this is the image of "the monarch and the minister are out of power, and the three lights are turbid".
If the fish swims upstream, it means that the villain is involved in the royal power.
Coupled with Yin Changying and Yin Concubine's appearance in front of the people, the middle Tiantai stands in the northwest of the royal capital, towering high-rise buildings, magnificent and boundless, and the people all think it is a miracle.
Therefore, both the minister and the people believe that this is a warning from heaven that the king must govern himself as soon as possible.
If the royal power is placed in the hands of the Queen Mother and Xiangbang, God will be angry.
Whether it is to think so from the bottom of my heart, or to please Yin Changying, the recital of imploring the prince's government is like a snowflake, piled up with the desks of Yin Changying and Xiangbang.
Yin Changying didn't care, he stayed in Shanglin Yuan for more than ten days, set up a banquet alone, celebrated Yin Cheng's birthday, and neither planned to see the hundred officials, nor did he seem to have the intention of returning to the royal capital.
But the more this happens, the more panicked the officials become.
At the end of August, Jiang Zhong was finally summoned by Yin Changying, and he immediately asked as the head of a hundred officials, saying that the king should be crowned and pro-government in early October, that is, on his birthday.
Surprisingly, the Queen Mother and An Xinhou maintained an eerie silence.
This matter is a foregone conclusion.
At the beginning of September, Yin Chang won 100 officials and went to the old capital.
September 18, evening.
There is a huge team of thousands of people, staying in the Jinian Palace, which is three hundred miles away from the old capital.
The Empress Dowager Song missed her children and was already waiting here, and held a banquet to entertain the ministers.
Sun Qing was well versed in astronomy and geography, and when he saw the topography of Ji Nian Palace, he couldn't help frowning.
Jinian Palace is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and one side holds water, and there is only one smooth road. The shape of the mountains is like a dragon bowing its head, and the water flow happens to pass through the dragon's neck, like a jade belt and a steel knife.
He and Fan Chen are just minor officials, so they are naturally not qualified to participate in the dinner, and with the martial law inside and outside the Ji Nian Palace, Sun Qing can only nest in the temporarily arranged room for two people, pacing left and right: "When the palace was selected, how could the Taishi Bureau choose such a place?" Too Shi Ling is dead? ”
Fan Chen, who was in the same room with him, said coldly: "The 'soil' here is not right. ”
The relationship between these two people is not good, but it is not bad.
Fan Chen has a withdrawn personality, and although Zheng Gao sent someone to teach him the etiquette of poetry and writing, he is still not very happy to deal with people.
However, Sun Qing is the same witch as him, and he is also Yin Xi's direct subordinate, and he can talk to anyone, so Fan Chen reluctantly makes it difficult and treats Sun Qing as half a friend.
When Sun Qing heard Fan Chen's words, he was even more uneasy: "If the terrain is changed......
The pattern of the mountains and rivers flowing here is like a "broken dragon" image!
Almost subconsciously, Sun Qing was about to go out: "I don't know when the banquet will end, I have to find an opportunity to see the princess or Lord Zheng and inform me that it is not appropriate here." ”
"There's no need for that, is it?" Fan Chen disagreed, "We didn't notice any clues about the change in Bashui that day, but the king and princess had already seen it. Since the king has not summoned us and the princess has not given any orders, it is clear that the matter is still under control. ”
Sun Qing was about to step out of the door, but when he heard Fan Chen say this, he paused.
He and Fan Chen are completely different ideas.
Sun Qing was born in a noble family, and received the education of courtiers since he was a child, and he had to abide by his duties when he treated loyal kings, and it was taboo to find dangers but not report them;
Fan Chen grew up in a mine where the law of the jungle was preded, and he had followed the law of the jungle for more than ten years before he knew the etiquette of poetry and books. He won Yin Changying, more of his awe and obedience to the Great Witch, and he also had a gratitude for Yin Chang's grace of recreation.
Therefore, his attitude is very clear - the strong have not spoken, what are we who are not strong enough?
Sun Qing stood at the door, hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow his heart and try to give the king a wake-up call.
But at this moment, the faces of the two changed in unison, because they heard the frightened cry of the guard: "This, what kind of monster is this!" ”
Then, there is the sound of swords and axes.
Sun Qing let go of his perception and paid attention to his surroundings, and couldn't help but show a shocked look on his face - outside the Jinian Palace, it was densely packed, and there were only a few thousand people!
If that could still be considered a "human".
They wore the clothes of "people", and depending on the style of their clothes, some of them looked like domestic servants, and some of them looked like soldiers of the local county government, but their faces and skin were covered with thick scales, and their eyes had become vertical pupils, and in the dark, they emitted a faint green light.
And their bodies are as nimble as geckos or snakes, and they climb over high walls without any effort.
The guards are also brave and good at fighting, and in the face of such monsters, even if they can have the courage to attack them, they are far from being able to compare with the speed and strength of the other party!
For a while, the smell of blood was permeated, and the screams of the palace and temple people came and went.
Fan Chen's expression was grim, and he was about to make a move, but was stopped by Sun Qing: "The situation is not right!" ”
"Why?"
"Why didn't the princess make a move?"
Sun Qing knew Yin Cheng very well and knew that she would never let monsters harm people.
At this time, the soldiers, screams, and cries everywhere almost shook the sky, but the princess didn't stop these monsters!
Sun Qing subconsciously looked at the brightly lit main hall with a solemn expression: "Unless-princess, she doesn't know what happened in the palace at all." ”
Fan Chen has also experienced what it means to be "self-contained", and his heart is solemn: "What should we do? ”
whether it is to storm the main hall and break the barrier; Or use witchcraft to save people immediately?
At the same time, the main hall.
The sound of silk and bamboo is soft and pleasant, the dancing girl with gorgeous makeup dances, the Empress Dowager Song is dressed in Yunjin Huayi, sitting on the right side of Yin Changying, although there are shallow crow's feet in the corners of her eyes, but she still does not hide the beauty of the country, graceful and charming.
An Xinhou stood behind the Empress Dowager Song and personally took the lamp for her.
Yin Ji also saw this famous male pet for the first time, and her impression was that she looked average, and the "qi" on her body did not look like a living person at all.
Of course, compared with the Empress Dowager Song......
As soon as Yin Ji thought so, she saw holding a wine glass and said with a smile: "Wang Er is so heroic, I am overjoyed." ”
Then, the Empress Dowager Song looked at Yin Cheng for a while, her eyes were amazed, and she was full of emotion: "Ah Yu's fairy and jade appearance is thousands of times better than me, and I am very relieved in my heart." ”
Hearing these words, Yin Changying and Yin Ji's expressions were still very calm, and Jiang Zhong had already sensed that something was wrong.
Is this Empress Dowager Song really herself?
With his understanding of the Empress Dowager Song, this woman would definitely be jealous to the point of madness when she saw the princess. Even if it was her own daughter, it was difficult for her to restrain the jealousy and malice in her heart.
With such thoughts, Jiang Zhong, who had been avoiding suspicion and not squinting, couldn't help but glance at the Empress Dowager Song, but found that she was more beautiful, more charming, and ......
Fear.
At this time, I saw the Empress Dowager Song smile slightly: "Today is a big day, Wang'er, Ah Yu, why don't you drink wine together?" ”
